Smiley Face Ceramic Mug

A literal visualization of how that morning cup of coffee makes you feel. This black ceramic mug slowly reveals a happy yellow smiley face motif on both sides of the mug after a hot beverage is poured into it. First published as a symbol for happy news in the French newspaper France-Soir in 1971, Franklin Loufrani designed the smiley face for his column and invited viewers to “Take the Time to Smile!” Since then, Smiley has become a happy icon that communicates positivity to the world. An emblem for anyone preferring to swap a narrative of despair with possibility and promise, the Smiley collection radiates a simple, universal joy. The Smiley Face Ceramic Mug measures 4.7h x 3.3w x 3.8"d and holds 12oz. Not microwave-safe. Hand wash only.
